I guess they learned that its easier to come "on the low" rather than parading with bayonets like they did in past centuries.

It also has to do with the extremely relax attitude the DR government has towards this problem, a problem that will cost us in the long shot monetarily and loss in economic advancement. I'm saying that because most Haitians aggregate the problems in the DR, demanding the DR to take care of Dominican poor and Haitian poor, further straining whatever resources are available here.

The public hospitals are in shambles, but they probably would not have been if the Hospitals were to attend Dominicans. Nowadays, Haitians outnumber Dominicans in many hospital and by the time a Dominican makes it to the hospital, all the medicines have been used up and the beds are taken. Its not like if things will be perfect without the Haitian problem, but it would be alot better than before.

The school are now overcrowded. Schools have always been underfunded to begin with, the allowance of Haitians to attend Dominican schools just puts more unnecessary strains on the system and puts the Dominicans (for who the schools were built for to begin with) at a disadvantage with less spending per pupil.

The slums are expanding like water. In 2000, the census reported that 95% of all slum dwellers in the DR were Haitians. Now its probably up more and the slums have spread. This is unacceptable. All these Haitians living in hovels on the outskirts of SDQ. Its ridiculous. Again, its not that without the Haitians the slums would disappear, but they would be a lot smaller and not in places like Arroyo Hondo which recently developed a slum area!

Tourists are complaining even more about the hassles and aggresiveness of many beggars in the streets of the DR. It just turns out that most beggars are either Haitians or Haitian kids. They beg and beg and if you don't give them something, they send you to hell. What is that all about? If the tourist decide that is a reason to stop coming to the DR, then the Haitians are going to cost us our biggest and most important industry.

And the worst part is that the rest of the world is taking some aspect of Haitian culture and branding them as Dominican! Many Haitian Bateyes conduct vodoo ceremonies and they are considered to be Dominican vodoo ceremony, despite most participants being Haitians. Palo music has taken root in some parts of the country, Palo music is Compas in Spanish, a Haitian music now being considered as Dominican.

Also, ever since Trujillo was killed, the influx of Haitians has increase with the last four years of Hipomania being the zenith of such influxes. One noticeable thing is that the average human on the streets in the DR everyday appears to be darker and darker. Obviously, most are Haitians starting to intermingle with the population and others are Haitians passing themselves as Dominicans. Though, colorwise its not important, it is indicative of the Haitian presence in the country and how they are changing the face of the country everyday that passes.

[QUOTE]I think that the question should be do you understand what she is talking about?

Haitians are invading every corner and every hole in the Dominican Republic. They are reproducing like flies and with them they bring to the country all of
their misery and we are all gonna go down with their misseries also, if the international communities don't help Haiti. They are wasting their times by donating stuffs like clothes and other goods to them. These goods are not doing much for them, the only people that are benefitting from these donations are the authorities that first come into contacts with these goods which then ends up beeing sold by the Haitians in the streets of Dominican Republic.

They need to send experts to show them how to farm, How to build, how to
appreciate their country, make them understand that if you take a tree down to make carbon, there will not be another one in the future unless you plant another, they need get away from that voodoo s*** , train someone to run the country or assign them an advisor and give thousands of scholarships.
Maybe one of those 1000's will be a great leader.

let it be known that i have nothing against Haitians
and i am not discriminating against them.[QUOTE]

excellent point, I 100 % agree with you guys. this is not discrimination if not our race and culture are in dangerous. the haitians are invading DR. every corner of DR, there are become strong haitians communities. even santiago, the haitans are doing communities.

another problem, the rate birth of haitians, they multiply by 1,000 compare to the DR. how many children a hatian woman has ( 6 children at least) compare to DR ( maybe 1 per mother) if somebody knows statistic, what will happen to the DR race plus worse our culture. whom substitute to whom?. plus the strong flow of haitians to DR. trujillo knew this and try to stop it.

the sollution is to deport all haitians illigally and legally out the country, stop the school and hospital benefits and sue who employ haitians on constructions and houses. close the frontier.

what is funny , nobody sees this situation and our government doesnt bother to do something.

at the end the haitians win to juan pablo patriotism. and we will be extincted by that time. why we dont demand to our government and congress to solve this situation before it is too late. lets join to some pediodistas who posted this situation and worry about it.
